Abstract:

The most critical failure regions are the joints between beams and columns. Under dynamic loads, the bonding of the rebars in the concrete will be severely stressed and fail. In addition to damaging the column loading paths, the collapse of the joint point may also affect the structure's overall ductility and capacity to dissipate energy. This study examined the relationship between natural fiber in beam-column joints by adding 0.5% to 1.5% with an increment of 0.25% of sisal fiber to reinforced concrete. Ductile detailing was done as per the IS 13920-2016. The analysis is carried out using the finite element software ANSYS workbench, and it is developed considering the effects of cyclic loading. The structural behaviour under cyclic loading was analyzed using Finite Element Method (FEM) analysis, including maximum load and displacement values compared with experimental values. A Comparison of FEM analysis and experimental values showed that the 1.25 % addition of Sisal fiber in reinforced concrete performs better in the joint between a beam and a column to withstand lateral and seismic loads on the structures.
